22 pictures by Atratus from the Dark Eighties "Very Early Hallowe'en" at the Astoria. These photos have all been processed using convolutional neural network styling (i.e. the sort of filters that Prisma uses, but not actually with Prisma) based on Belle Epoche artworks, a couple of mid-20th century paintings, plus one of my own paintings, just for fun.

Today is Chinese New Year's day today, and it's happy shoe day for me. On January 3rd I ordered a pair of classic winklepickers from The Gothic Shoe Company of Essex, England, and they arrived today. These are hand-made shoes so the five weeks for delivery is not just the shipping from the UK to this, the western fringe of the old Empire, but the time to make them to order. Because they are made to order they will do custom work, but for a first order I chose to go with an "off the rack" and simple style.

My "Brexit boots" arrived today. I'm calling them "Brexit boots" because I bought them from The Gothic Shoe Company in England when the Pound bottomed out right after the Brexit vote and as such saved a bundle. These are my second pair from these guys and I can't recommend them highly enough. *happy dance*
